It seems now that the difference between monkey testing and
gorilla testing is clear.
I want to clarify another conception: although both monkey
testing and gorilla testing comes from ad hoc testing, they
are different from ad hoc testing and also random testing.
The following definitions from ISTQB glossary give a good
description:
ad hoc testing(emphasizing testing process): Testing
carried out informally; no formal test preparation takes
place, no recognized test design technique is used, there
are no expectations for results and arbitrariness guides
the test execution activity.
random testing (emphasizing testing technique or test
design) : A black box test design technique where test
cases are selected, possibly using a pseudo-random
generation algorithm, to match an operational profile. This
technique can be used for testing non-functional attributes
such as reliability and performance.
monkey testing(emphasizing testing behaviour): Testing by
means of a random selection from a large range of inputs
and by randomly pushing buttons, ignorant on how the
product is being used.

Answer / sourav samanta
Monkey testing is testing like a monkey(that is lightly with
main functionality and without maintaining the
order/sequences).It is used to save time and to test basic
funtion is fine or not in a app.
But gorrila testing is used for heavily testing with a main
functionality and tested it heavily in the application.
It may possible that after monkey there some major defect
but after gorrila testing there should not be any major defect.
Let me know if you have any doubt.

In Monkey testing we perform testing randomly it is not
required to check each and every function
In Gorilla testing We perform testing heavily means each and
every aspect we perform after this testing chances of bug is
very less

Answer / dipika
monkey testin g is not a adhoc testing bcoz for the adhoc
testing one shoul have strong knowledge about application
which is not necessary for monkey testing.
monkey testing is a unit testing that runs with no specific
test in mind it is a random testing.

Hi
Monkey testing is simply testing a module or application
randomly with out going through the complete knowledge abut
the module or application
Gorilla Testing is going deeply to a module to find defects
unlike the monkey testing.

Answer / satyaprasad
vidhya ratnam is correct,actually as u said monkey or
gorilla testing comes under the catagory of Adhoc
testing,due to lack of time testers will test the main
functionalities of the application ,this is called monkey
or gorilla testing

My application is Central Management System(CMS) & Point of Sale(POS). CMS - main server is installed on one PC & POS - Client is installed on another PC. We can manage number of POS from CMS server. CMS is divided into CMS-Master & CMS Client. System flow is like - Manage data Menu has 22 submenus ex: Users, Customers, Printers etc....................... Manage all 22 submenus in CMS-Master Import all 22 submenus in CMS-Client one by one. My Question ---> Import CMS-Master to CMS-Client is the test case, So Should I consider it as a single test case or I have to write separte test cases for Importing All 22 submenus?
